estimated to be around 35-40lbs when full grown. She is a sweet snuggler who is loving her new pampered life of cuddles, cozy blankets, and working for treats. She will easily melt your heart when snuggling nearby when she sleeps but when she is awake she wants to play, run and chew on all her toys. She currently has 3 young foster siblings who she loves to play with and is very patient with but is learning to keep her puppy teeth to the toys only when she is playing, so a home with children over 5 would be best for now. She has shown no aggression around her food when people are close by and has a huge appetite. Hounds are very social and do best with other dogs in the home so naturally she loves playing with other dogs both big and small and will show you just how fast and outgoing she is when around them! A home with a fence is pretty crucial because this girl is not only curious but fast too and her nose has no boundaries. If you are a runner you are in luck, she will make an excellent running buddy! Rosealyn is not yet comfortable with eating her food around other dogs. She does not have much interest in cats as she would much rather play with her people, dog friends, and toys. Rosealyn is working hard on potty training and is currently using puppy pads. She does a great job going potty outside on command as soon as we go outside. While she had some medical emergencies early on, now that she is feeling better she is very quickly learning to walk on a leash, follow the command "sit", and respond to her name when called. She is a very smart girl who is starting to show her need for independence and exploration and would love someone who can keep her active and mentally stimulated while also being open to affection and snuggles. If you are interested in adopting/meeting , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $400 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
